Bates’ experience seems to be a common one among employees at Amazon’s ‘fulfilment centers,’ who in some locations have been struggling to unionize against the wishes of their superiors. The retail giant regularly features on the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health’s ‘Dirty Dozen’ list of unsafe employers, with the most recent pre-pandemic report citing 13 fatalities since 2013, “a high incidence of suicide attempts,” and “workers urinating in bottles because they are afraid to take breaks.”

I had to meet some AWS execs at amazon once, I was not impressed by the workspace at all.

BTTT!!!
they’d prolly spend the time going to the john instead
Why not a chapel?

Next thing you know the girls will learn to write their names too!

Anyone remember the “empathy boxes” in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? We’re living in a Philip K. Dick novel now.
Yep and pre-crime is a thing now too. The Feds are busy monitoring citizens for criminal thoughts. Good thing they can’t read my mind yet.

And many Freepers openly mocked those refusing to work at Amazon fulfillment centers as being mooches, d-bags and leeches (often Amazon or fast food are the only games in town job-wise)
The Nestle Chill Zone room did have coloring books and

Couldn't sleep this morning, so I started watching "The Man In The high Castle". After 3 episodes, I started thinking the same thing. People who aren't supposed to are beginning to understand, or at least suspect, the truth, and the powers that be a desperate to suppress it.
“Oh wait. We must be all about me”
That’s key. My goal next time this abomination is discussed is to ask people if they could try not focusing on their breathing, but the first paragraph of John’s gospel.
If they use one of these booths then their employee file is stamped in big letters “WUSS”
